- Trading down
4 Mar 2014
Tonight my trading down strategy caught alight!
I met with James, at a great new restaurant called Craft in
Parkhurst (where I need to go back to try their milkshakes!)
James and I bounced some ideas around for how I could trade
up my WONDERboom Rock the House item- some ideas I’ll be looking more
into.
And then we got on to the world of
property, and specifically commercial property and what I am looking for- which
is between 100m2 and 200m2 of space – anywhere! But, as I said to James when he asked, if I could choose, office space in my own home
town of Jozi would be first prize.
I learnt some more about the costs involved in renting office space, and ways I could structure my final trade for the onematchstick office. And then- the ultimate grin factor of the evening - we even spoke about a possible building
that could be the home of the future onematchstick office! *punches air*
So without saying too much, because this is really still as
a very early stage, and there is a lot of effort and negotiating and networking
and asking around and being creative that still needs to happen, this
opportunity looks very bright!
The next steps include James doing some number crunching in excel, and me visiting the building sometime soon.
So yes, my strategy of burning the matchstick at both ends looks
like it has caught on fire!
(More on the other side- the trading up side- to come in my
next blog post.)
